In Lr4 how do I import from disk?

I have been using Lr4 trial and decided to purchase a hard copy of the software. Having installed Lr4 from the DVD I created a new catalog and imported my 2012 images. However it did not import the edited versions of the RAW files saved as JPEGs. Try as I may I can find no way of importing these edited copies to my catalog. There must be away as in  Lr2 I could search my files and Ctr+click on images to import. This is beginning to drive me nuts as I try in vain to find a way around this problem. So any help in resolving this issue will be very gratefully received.

Hi Rikk
I tried that several times and it still would not pickup the edited images. However in desperation I unistalled/reinstalled Lr4 checked the box again and with fingerd crossed reimported my files and wonder of wonders it picked up all the edited RAW files, at last. I can only assume that there must have been a glitch during the original install process but with luck the problem has now gone for good.  Thanks for your input.

  • LR2.3:  Question on Import from Disk / DNG conversion

    Hi... I notice that when choosing FILE/ Import photos from disk" There are 4 choices under file handling
    1. Add photos to catalog without moving.
    2. Copy photos to new location and add to catalog.
    3. Move photos to a new location and add to catalog.
    4. Copy photos a Digital Negative (DNG) and add to catalog.
    My RAW files are already on an external hard drive and organized in labeled folders so I wish to "Add photos to catalog without moving"... but I ALSO want to convert these RAW images to DNG files on import. What do I choose to apply the "add the photos to catalog without moving" AND at the same time convert those files from RAW to DNG files on import?
    Will this add the newly created and imported DNG files into the existing folders alongside the original source RAW files?
    Under import preferences / Import DNG creation, Is it best to leave the Compressed (Lossless) option checked or unchecked?
    What's best for preview creation? Minimal or 1:1. I will not be working on many images at once so speed is less valuable than disk space.

    Bennett, this is how I do it. Choose File/import from disk. Select raw images to import. Select last option, "Copy photos as DNG & add to catalog." Under "copy to", click down arrow, and browse to the folder containing original files. In the "Organize" window, select "into one folder" if you want them to be in the same folder as originals. Select "by original folders" if you want LR to put it in a sub-folder that it will name. Leave Compressed (Lossless) checked. There is also an option to re-name the files if you prefer. As for previews, Minimal will import much quicker, but LR will build larger previews later. I have tried it both this way, and importing as 1:1. I do not see much difference in working with files that were imported as 1:1 or minimal. LR seems to take about the same time to stop "working" on it before I can.

  • I run Final Cut Express 4.0.1; I shoot with a Sony HDR-CX260V. How do I import from the camera directly to Final Cut, without having to go through the intermediate step of using iMovie?

    I use Final Cut Express 4.0.1; I shoot with a Sony HDR-CX260V.
    How do I import from camera to Final Cut without going through the intermediate step of using iMovie?

    If you shoot in one of the following modes you should be able to Log & Transfer directly into FCE:
    HD:  1920x1080/60i (FX or FH mode)
    HD:  1440x1080/60i (HQ or LP mode)
    SD:  720x480/60i
    1080/60p (PS mode) seems to be the default mode in your camcorder.  FCE only supports progressive video in 720p50 or 720p60.   That's probably why you have had to import via iMovie.
    It would be better to upgrade to Final Cut Pro X, the version currently supported.  FCE was discontinued over 18 months ago and is not supported on Lion or Mountain Lion.

  • How do i import from my Aperture 3 to 3.5.1 as Aperture 3 says it needs to be upgraded which i have done but still cannot open my photographs.

    how do i import from my Aperture 3 to 3.5.1 as Aperture 3 says it needs to be upgraded to 3.5.1 which I have done but i still cannot see any photographers.
    Are you trying to import an older Aperture 3 library? Or do you just want to open your old library in Aperture 3.5.1?
    In any case the Aperture library needs to be upgraded, not the Aperture application. Double-click your old Aperture library to open it in Aperture. Then Aperture will upgrade the library, so it can be opened in Aperture  and you can can browse it.
    Since upgrading your Aperture library to Aperture 3.5.1 will require a major rebuilding the library in a new format be sure to make a backup copy of your library before doing this, just to be safe.

  • How do I import from Canon XM2 Final Cut Pro X on a MacBook Pro?

    How do I import from a Canon XM2 to MacBook Air using Final Cut Pro X or iMovie 11 please?

    This is a miniDV camcorder. For this camcorder you must use Firewire.
    If your MBP has Firewire 800, you need a 4 pin to 9 pin firewire cable.
    The camera must be plugged into wall power, not batteries only.
    Set the camera to Play, and iMovie should recognize the camera and an import screen should appear.

    Hi,

    Step1. create a request table, where u are inserting ur request.
    step2. create PRO*C proram, which is listening request on the table. If there is any request, call the imp (executable). This is happening on server side.
    Benifit. U can make a request from cleint and ftp the file client sit.

  • How do I import from Photoshop elements 12 to Lightroom for Mac OS?

    How do I import from Photoshop elements 12 to Lightroom for Mac OS?

    I never did it from Windows to Mac.
    I assume you need to move everything to Mac PSE12 (or PSE 13) by downloading the 30 day free trial of PSE 12 or 13, and then once everything is working, use File->Upgrade Photoshop Elements Catalog in Lightroom. Your tags and albums will remain intact. I believe the face recognition transfers as well to keywords, but the location in the photo of the face will be gone as Lightroom has no such feature.

  • How to install software from disk onto imac

    how to install software from disk onto imac

    Are you using one of the newer iMac's with no DVD drive? If so, you can either get an external CD/DVD drive (any make - doesn't have to be Apple) or, if you have another Mac on the same network that has a CD/DVD drive you may be able to do it by turning on 'DVD or CD Sharing' on that Mac (System Preferences>Sharing). Hopefully you'll see the disk on the Mac without the DVD drive and be able to install from there.

  • IPhoto 4.0.3 crashes on import from disk or camera

  • How do I Import from a PPC MAC at 10.3.9 to a Intel MAC at 10.4.8

    I just received my new 17" MacBookPro and very successfully imported all my files from my G3Powerbook500. HOWEVER, I have done ALL of my printing on my Epson 4000 and 9600 from my PPC G4-500 tower at OS 10.3.9. Now my Intel MacBook Pro at 10.4.8 is my highest performer and I want to print from it. I have many Custom Page Sizes on my G4 that were not imported at install (of course since I came from my G3).
    How can I export my G4 print setup dialog Custom Page Sizes to my new MacBookPro???

    Thanks a lot Chris. I believe it is working. I was already going down this path and stopped when I saw that the format I had imported from my G3 at 10.3.9 looked quite diferent than my G4 data. When you said try it it gave me a boost over my doubts so I went ahead anyway and things look good in my new MacBookPro 10.4.8 custom page setup dialog. All my G4 settings are now in place on my MacBookPro. I won't get a chance to actually print from this machine until next week because of business commitments but I'm pretty sure you got me there! Thanks again, Bob

  • In PSE 9.0, how do I import from files into organizer without duplicating images already in the orga

    In PSE 9.0, how do I import images from hard drive files into the organizer without importing duplicated files already in the organizer or
    How do I find duplicated images within the organizer so that I can delete them?

    I imported a bunch of photos from iPhoto 4 on one machine to iPhoto 5 on another, expecting it to catch duplicates, without testing beforehand (duh). It didn't catch them, and now I'm trying to figure out which were the imported ones so I can delete them.
    As this looks to be a laborious task if done from within iPhoto, and deleting the files via the Finder is a no-no -- assuming I can even identify the duplicates -- is there a third-party app, or even a good trick, for doing this?

    How weird. I swear that option wasn't there yesterday. Must have updated or something since then. Thanks.
